ON THE PROBABILITY OF CORRECT SELECTION IN THE LEVIN-ROBBINS SEQUENTIAL ELIMINATION PROCEDURE

Cheng‐Shiun Leu, Bruce Lubotsky Levin · 1999

We prove the general validity of a formula conjectured by Levin and Robbins (1981) to give a lower bound for the probability of correct selection in a sequential elimination procedure designed to identify the best of c binomial pop- ulations. The formula is elementary to calculate and simplifies the design of the selection procedure.
